and learn the memory verse.

the first half of the lesson in the following manner:
I. Assign a reference to each member of the family, using the lesson
pamphlet to ascertain what references are used in the lesson.

Then read the texts in their regular order, carefully considering what
each one says before reading the next one. Be sure to have each member
of the family understand the meaning of all the words in each text.

the texts already committed to memory, and

the best.

(This pro
g
ram is simply suggestive and can of course be varied to suit circumstances, but
we do urge upon all the necessity of thorough, regular, systematic study of tht Scriptures as
given in our Sabbath school lessons.)
